36 year-old Chelsea and ex-international player of the Elephants of Cote D’Ivoire, Didier Drogba revealed in an interview that his son, Isaac who is 16 may not play for his fatherland or France where the player grew up but the Three Lions of England.
Isaac was born in Paris, France in 1999 but the family moved to England when Drogba joined Chelsea in 2004.
Drogba who came in for Diego Costa towards the last two minutes of Sunday’s Capital One Cup 2-0 final win over Everton said in an interview with Sports Illustrated that he will not convince the boy, who is currently a youth player at Chelsea which country to play for.
‘When I asked him (Isaac) which country he would like to play for as an international, he told me neither Ivory Coast nor France but England.
‘I cannot tell why he doesn't want to play for my country Ivory Coast if he had to choose a national team someday. That would be his choice.’
Drogba is Ivory Coast's leading goal scorer with 65 goals in 104 appearances.
